Hi Pepper I joined GameHouse over a year ago before the merger thingy so I was already a member when you guys came. I have really enjoyed it here and still having a great time and it's nice to meet so many nice people and to see more coming in almost on a daily basis. It's great to have all of you here from RA and I hope you enjoy your time here as well. Take care Pepper and hope to talk with you more!

Hi everyone.

I joined as a fun ticket member April last year. Another club I belonged to no longer exists (PF) so I joined up funpass instead.

I was a real arcade customer for over 5 years. I had to join with the merger. I never posted on the forums though.

Hey, everyone! I meandered over some time after the merger. They left the RA board up for a bit, then *poof* it was gone... all those billions of typewritten words. There were some already here, but we were welcomed, and its seems they're still tryin' to get this place on it's feet with forum design and all. Wow, govegirl... here since last April? Were there many posting back then? Nice to meet you.

Just reviewed my billing history to be sure but I joined RA in May of 2007. Did not have a continuous membership from that time but frequently rejoined when they had a game I wanted. I think the first game I bought from them was Zuma Deluxe and i have been playing it all these years and still cannot get past level 9. Also bought Zuma's Revenge and was able to finish it.

Hi Mooma
Nice to meeet you too. There were no forums back then- the forums are very new here- as you see I have only posted very few times myself. I expect to spend more time here with the funpass.
I have read about the changeover you guys had to merge your accounts here and I hope everything is smooth there now.

Hi and welcome to the forum.
It must be three years now since the real arcade forum went down. I watched it go. It went a little at a time.
I had been at lithium so I just stayed. There was no forum here at that time.
BFG didn't have a forum until a few years ago. I am there to help people with their games.
When we bought out first computer in 2003, we bought a game from Office Max. I found the gamehouse solitarie games on a cd. That is how I learned about gamehouse.
Back then the only monthly plan was with real arcade, so that is why I stay with them. It isn't easy to buy games on a fixed income of about $1,000 a month.

A while ago for free games only (promotions) that you didn't need a credit card. I have two accounts but only use this one. I have a couple games on my freebie account, but this is my primary.

I have had a freebie account a while here. I never posted on the boards with that though. I just purchased two games from bigfish for $2.99 and I joined their club (it sucks though they don't give you any free game with that on the trial). I am going to keep it though they have a lot of games they don't have on gamehouse.

I just joined today so i'd like to say hi to all you fellow gamers.
I just started playing these gamehouse games, and am loving them.

My favorites are Diner Dash, Build-a-Lot, Virtual Villagers, and Wedding Dash. But i'm hoping to play more in my spare time.

So a big SHOUTOUT to y'all and Happy Gaming !!!

And a big WELCOME! novak_the_kojak... hope you enjoy your stay. I'm a fan of those games also... tho not so much Diner Dash. Can't keep up with the Flo, but I love most other time-management games, including the building ones. Playing Hotel Mogul, Coconut Queen, GHOST Renaissance, and several others right now, and have my eye on MCF Dire Grove. Yes, I'm an octopus. Lol!

Many have joined gamehouse or decided to post it would be fun to know a little about them.

I bought my first RA game 2003? So long ago I can't really remember but I do know it was 2 games Super Glinx and Super Collapse (before it was given as a freebie for joining).

I am 50 (yikes) 2 kids girl 28 and boy 17 and 2 grandkids. I have 4 cats and a doberman who is my best friend.

I am a retired Customer Service Specialist. The last company I worked for was a large grocery chain here in Az. where I live. After 10 yrs of going into stores that were felt to not be up to the chains high standard for CS, and teaching and motivating employees until the suits were satisfied, I felt worn out and retired. I have been fortunate and not had to return to work. This leaves me lots of time to play games, watch my son play LaCrosse, and train with my pup every day.

ETA I also spent some time working in IT part time because I was interested in it and loved learning all about it.
